Welcome to Remotely Interesting brought to you by Netlify. To day we have the pleasure or meeting up with Evan Weaver, CTO of Fauna to hear about his Jamstack journey.People who were remotely interesting: Cassidy Williams Phil Hawksworth Tara Z. Manicsic And special guest: Evan Weaver, Fauna CTOWho is he?Co-founder, CTO (former CEO) of FaunaThe Jamstack Journey ~2017 Global transactional database tech based on Twitter experience serverless before there even was 'serverless' in 2016 people wanted servers not APIs ~2018 found early adopters building GraphQL interfaces for Fauna in the Jamstack pivot to developer-led db as a service & the rest is history Being OK with the Weird him & co-founder (Chief Architect) Matt Freels ex-Twitter anarchist hippies Twitter: home of the weird off the shelf solutions like Cassandra & MongoDB wouldn't work for what they needed considering the journey of other small teams and how to help them "fundamentally motivated by anger and rage" fave quote of the show & why Fauna came around to help Moore's Law pun Where to Focus First there are only so many large companies w specialized dbs for the rest of us they wanted to make off-the-shelf dbs that would grow with company LAMP era analogy & steak dinners & web 1.0 data replication and inability to modernize 100s of millions of dollars a year on Oracle CHCHCHCHChanges from the developer out provisioning microservices and GraphQL the permission chain of architectural change "you don't know what the future is going to be you just know you need to iterate" Phil Wants to Talk to About Trust the bigger the company the harder it is for them to trust third parties https://fauna.com/trust is the foundation stable & secure making distributed strictly serializable Calvin algorithm giving people more information & transparency region groups Delegating Databases & Legacy Struggle knowing just enough to be dangerous some Phil puns no one migrates their database you can port if you want to...but maybe don't decoupled architectures besides the Jamstack mixing and matching TidBits & ThoughtThings™️What is something old that you have that getting rid of isn't easy? sad rags more Pheels about Phil philtting and philing shirts not getting rid of old things...on purpose computer treasures, we want that data ummmmbilical cords & Beautician and the Beast Get started w Fauna for free! & join the slack community :)As always, we hope you find it remotely interesting.

Welcome to Remotely Interesting brought to you by Netlify.People who were remotely interesting: Cassidy Williams Jason Lengstorf Phil Hawksworth Tara Z. Manicsic SHOW NOTES:Who's got a favorite database?EveryoneStructured vs. Unstructured Data our first database experiences (lots of MySQL) learning about databases Jason thinks his brain gets bigger when he learns things Microsoft Excel does everything MongoDB & mongoose the GraphQL It is SQL or SQL Shadow and Bone (putting this here for Phil) How do you use DBs in a Jamstack architecture? having to do DBs for "real" sites abdicating responsibilities to the experts at a Database as a Service sharding and giggling from limited options & complicated setups to lots of new options FaunaDB Hasura Supabase PlanetScale, etc. decoupling the frontend from the backend via API endpoints & serverless functions, we're standardizing communication DX & How we choose DBs GraphQL user interface (GraphiQL) on the basis of the API, writing queries, accelerating dev workflow how much do we need to know about the DBs Phil is wise, you're welcome, Phil the dev's comfort level Who needs the top-tier? you probs aren't going to hit Twitter-scale by the time you outgrow the service, you'll prob. have the money to go bigger dbs aren't that incredibly different ask the company what your next step should be if you hit a limit kicking tires/free tiers are so valuable What features do we look for?- a clear, understandable API- an easy onramp to getting started/getting data- what am I building & what are the cost implications (rate limits, etc.)- even really brilliant, smart people like Jason mess up, a story about loops- having a playground like GraphiQL- a discussion of GraphQL hesitancy- Cassidy's professional conclusion, "ehhh"- Jason talks about dependsCassidy exhibits her humor mastery and it shines like the sun!

Tara Z. Manicsic joined me for this video, setting up the very basics of Scully, which is a Static Site Generator for Angular — nay, the SSG for Angular, as Tara pointed out to me. I don’t know much Angular at all. In fact, I didn’t have the Angular CLI installed on my machine at all when we started this video, so that ends up being one of the first things we do. Then we get into scaffolding a new … Read article “#193: Scully: the SSG for Angular”

In this episode of Adventures in Angular the panel interviews Tara Manicsic. Tara is an Angular Developer Experience Engineer at Netlify. Tara explains what she does at Netlify. She explains what Netlify is and introduces the topic for today’s episode, JAMstack. She explains what services Netlify offers and the packages they offer.    She explains that the JAM in JAMstack stands for JavaScript API Markup, which outlines the best practices of a JAMstack architecture. During her explanation of JAMstack and the benefits of a microservice architecture, she references Smashing Magazine and their switch to JAMstack.    Tara overviews each letter of JAM and how they affect JAMstack. J or Javascript refers to the use of a JavaScript language, like Angular and others. Tara lists the API’s one might use for the A in JAM. The panel discusses the M or Markup. Markup serves up fast and safe prerendered content. Tara explains what prerender means and it makes the content safer and the sites faster. Tara then overviews the entire JAMstack process and explains atomic deployment.    The panel considers how JAMstack is picking up in the Angular ecosystem. Tara outlines a few of the benefits seen when using JAMstack and the panel considers the possible use cases. She shares a few real-life examples of the success seen when JAMstack is used in an enterprise application.    Panelists Brian Love Shai Reznik Guest Tara Z.

In this week's episode of the DevEd podcast, the panelists talk to Tara Z. Manicsic. Tara is an Angular Developer Experience Engineer at Netlify, a blogger, and loves to work in her community educating and learning from other developers. The topic for this episode is work-life balance with an emphasis on balancing learning as a programmer. The first thing they discuss is if programmers are good at balancing work-life. The general consensus is that they aren't, but mostly because they love their job, and it is also always fun to learn newer technologies and concepts. They talk about hackations and coding in beautiful environments away from their regular desks. They talk about some strategies to maintain a good work-life balance especially in high-pressure scenarios where the work seems to never get over. They suggest time management, blocking off hours and segregating them into strictly work and non-work periods. Tara mentions working non-traditional hours while having an infant at home, while Brooke explains how to schedule things beforehand so that knowing the tasks ahead of time helps in managing them effectively. Others chip in with their suggestions as well. Tara also speaks on the importance of having a good manager with realistic expectations. They then touch on work-life balance from the perspective of managers too, where they advise them to make sure that their employees work reasonable hours, check in with them regularly and encourage them to take personal time off for their own mental health. They share their experiences related to death marches and the stress associated with it. They mention that while working as a junior developer in a high pressure environment that is hard to keep up with, it can be hard to change jobs. To deal with these kind of situations, they talk about how important it is to like the work being done, and if it is not something enjoyable, it is time to start looking for something completely different or take some time to unwind. Trying to do interesting things such as reading books, listening to music or podcasts at work during lunchtime, or while commuting, can also help in thriving in such environments. The next point discussed is how to deal with the need to learn along with working at a regular job and still manage to maintain a balance. Consuming relevant content in the background while going about our day-to-day chores, not underestimating the learning done on the job, carving out time for self development during work hours, writing regular blog posts of things learned which can eventually lead to an awesome portfolio, are some great recommendations. The last thing the panelists talk about is organizational tools for an awesome work-learn-life balance. They suggest Toggle, Asana, OmniFocus and Calendar. Luis mentions that given that we are constantly bombarded with information, it can be beneficial to sift through that, remove the unnecessary noise and concentrate on what is needed to free up significant amount of time. Joe recommends using a bullet journal, being physical and tactile while organising rather than digital, and Mike suggests switching the airplane mode on, among other things. Tara and Sam talk about meditation and mindfulness. They end the show with picks. The Dev Ed podcast is produced by Thinkster.io and published by DevChat.TV.

AiA 143 Kendo UI with Burke Holland Charles Max Wood and Burke Holland discuss Kendo UI. Burke Holland is on the Developer Tools Division at Progress. The discussion ranges from the introduction of Kendo UI to tests used for Angular apps. Stay tuned to discover what Kendo UI can do for you! [00:01:50] Shutout for Angular Remote Conf Charles will be picking speakers really soon so get your ticket at the early bird price. [00:02:15] – Introduction to Burke Holland Burke Holland is working for Progress in the Developer Tools Division on the Developer Relations Team. They work on products like NativeScript, KendoUI and all the developer tools that Progress makes, which is mostly UI components and mobile frameworks Questions for Burke Holland [00:03:00] – What is Kendo UI? Kendo UI is a Javascript UI library. It has open source components (Kendo UI Core), but it’s primarily commercial. It’s more on heavy lifting text scenarios like grid that has sorting and filtering, drag and drop, grouping, scheduler, robust calendar interface, pivot grids, Gantt charts, data visualizations. We’ve rebuilt Kendo UI from the ground up using Angular components. It’s the Kendo UI Core Angular that was released last January. [00:08:00] – How are Kendo UI elements pulled for use into an app? There’s a private npm repo that you would just pull in and bundle some of the widgets together. Inputs can be a drop down list, a combo box, autocomplete, etc. Using npm and install -@progress/kendo-angular-input, you get all of those inside your npm modules folder. We and the team are pushing to move to the public npm repo so that people don’t have to register for an account. [00:13:00] What about mobile development? Does this work with NativeScript? Kendo UI widgets do not work inside of NativeScript for mobile apps. However, we are looking for a possibility of merging their NativeScript UI library with Kendo UI so that you can build a website, a progressive web app, a NativeScript app, etc. [00:16:00] Do you also have to pull in some CSS? Kendo UI has their own CSS that is based on Sass. It has a theme builder to customize themes that you can pre-select from. Integration for Bootstrap 4 was also built because Kendo UI does not have a layout system so it doesn’t provide you with any grid system for layouts or for responsive design. [00:19:00] Do you just import it into my app and then use the components, is it that simple? It is recommended to use Angular CLI to use Kendo UI’s components and import it into an app. First step is to create a new project with the Angular CLI because Kendo UI is designed to work with it. You can work with SystemJS, instead, but it requires some tweaking. Next, you would need to add the private npm repo which registers the end point on the terminal. And then, npm-install to install the components. After that, you can include them in your app module file. Import Kendo grid from @progress/kendo-angular-grid. Then, you can import them into your module so you use it in your templates. [00:23:00] – Can I tie a chart to a grid, update the chart and have the grid change? Everything that Angular updates, Kendo UI just updates too. If you buy two components to the same array and you update that array, both of those components are going to update because they’re using Angular’s binding. [00:24:00] – Does Kendo UI work with the older versions of Angular? Kendo UI works with Angular 1.x. By the way, AngularJS means Angular 1.x. Meanwhile, Angular means Angular 2 and up. Directives for Angular 1.x wrap Kendo UI components. [00:28:00] – When moving my component in AngularJS to Modern Angular, do I have to include both of those in the product? I can’t provide any guidance here, other than I wouldn’t do that. If you migrate, you’re going to be firing up a new project but you should be able to move your application logic over pretty well. However, we still have this idea of services and injection and those things are transferable. And then, when you use Kendo UI components, the only thing that’s really transferable there is the configuration settings. [00:29:00] – How do you write tests if you’re testing Angular app? Are there other things that you should be testing? That would mean there’s some sort of functional testing and unit testing. If we’re talking about unit testing, you should just test the way that you would normally test Angular. For functional test, you need a functional testing tool like Selenium or Test Studio. [00:30:00] – Is there anything else that people need to know about Kendo UI? We’ve got a lot of other components coming so stay tuned on that. We’re also working on some React stuff. We always love to get feedback. We have a github repo. Picks Burke Holland: Server list Azure Functions Challenge Medium article on Samsung’s weird emoji Twitter at @burkeholland Twitter of Tara Z.

AiA 143 Kendo UI with Burke Holland Charles Max Wood and Burke Holland discuss Kendo UI. Burke Holland is on the Developer Tools Division at Progress. The discussion ranges from the introduction of Kendo UI to tests used for Angular apps. Stay tuned to discover what Kendo UI can do for you! [00:01:50] Shutout for Angular Remote Conf Charles will be picking speakers really soon so get your ticket at the early bird price. [00:02:15] – Introduction to Burke Holland Burke Holland is working for Progress in the Developer Tools Division on the Developer Relations Team. They work on products like NativeScript, KendoUI and all the developer tools that Progress makes, which is mostly UI components and mobile frameworks Questions for Burke Holland [00:03:00] – What is Kendo UI? Kendo UI is a Javascript UI library. It has open source components (Kendo UI Core), but it’s primarily commercial. It’s more on heavy lifting text scenarios like grid that has sorting and filtering, drag and drop, grouping, scheduler, robust calendar interface, pivot grids, Gantt charts, data visualizations. We’ve rebuilt Kendo UI from the ground up using Angular components. It’s the Kendo UI Core Angular that was released last January. [00:08:00] – How are Kendo UI elements pulled for use into an app? There’s a private npm repo that you would just pull in and bundle some of the widgets together. Inputs can be a drop down list, a combo box, autocomplete, etc. Using npm and install -@progress/kendo-angular-input, you get all of those inside your npm modules folder. We and the team are pushing to move to the public npm repo so that people don’t have to register for an account. [00:13:00] What about mobile development? Does this work with NativeScript? Kendo UI widgets do not work inside of NativeScript for mobile apps. However, we are looking for a possibility of merging their NativeScript UI library with Kendo UI so that you can build a website, a progressive web app, a NativeScript app, etc. [00:16:00] Do you also have to pull in some CSS? Kendo UI has their own CSS that is based on Sass. It has a theme builder to customize themes that you can pre-select from. Integration for Bootstrap 4 was also built because Kendo UI does not have a layout system so it doesn’t provide you with any grid system for layouts or for responsive design. [00:19:00] Do you just import it into my app and then use the components, is it that simple? It is recommended to use Angular CLI to use Kendo UI’s components and import it into an app. First step is to create a new project with the Angular CLI because Kendo UI is designed to work with it. You can work with SystemJS, instead, but it requires some tweaking. Next, you would need to add the private npm repo which registers the end point on the terminal. And then, npm-install to install the components. After that, you can include them in your app module file. Import Kendo grid from @progress/kendo-angular-grid. Then, you can import them into your module so you use it in your templates. [00:23:00] – Can I tie a chart to a grid, update the chart and have the grid change? Everything that Angular updates, Kendo UI just updates too. If you buy two components to the same array and you update that array, both of those components are going to update because they’re using Angular’s binding. [00:24:00] – Does Kendo UI work with the older versions of Angular? Kendo UI works with Angular 1.x. By the way, AngularJS means Angular 1.x. Meanwhile, Angular means Angular 2 and up.
